Section 473(a)(8) ( 42 U.S.C. 673(a)(8) ) is amended to read as follows: A State shall calculate the savings (if any) resulting from the application of paragraph (2)(A)(ii) to all applicable children for a fiscal year, using a methodology specified by the Secretary or an alternate methodology proposed by the State and approved by the Secretary. A State shall annually report to the Secretary— the methodology used to make the calculation described in subparagraph (A), without regard to whether any savings are found; the amount of any savings referred to in subparagraph (A); and how any such savings are spent, accounting for and reporting the spending separately from any other spending reported to the Secretary under part B or this part.
The Secretary shall make all information reported pursuant to subparagraph
(B)available on the website of the Department of Health and Human Services in a location easily accessible to the public. A State shall spend an amount equal to the amount of the savings (if any) in State expenditures under this part resulting from the application of paragraph (2)(A)(ii) to all applicable children for a fiscal year, to provide to children of families any service that may be provided under part B or this part. A State shall spend not less than 30 percent of any such savings on post-adoption services, post-guardianship services, and services to support and sustain positive permanent outcomes for children who otherwise might enter into foster care under the responsibility of the State, with at least 2/3 of the spending by the State to comply with such 30 percent requirement being spent on post-adoption and post-guardianship services. Any State spending required under clause
(i)shall be used to supplement, and not supplant, any Federal or non-Federal funds used to provide any service under part B or this part. .
